Constructing the Griffon

THE SHORT VERSION

Stormwing’s large metal parts require both structural reinforcement and disguised joins. Anja drills matching holes for paperclip pins in the wings and body, then uses dampened sculpting tools to work putty into the gaps between components. Keeping the Griffon, saddle and torso separate until painting is finished combines a secure assembly with access to awkward surfaces. The instructions make preparation part of the final display finish rather than a stage to rush.
